How our corporate hog roast works in Stanton Harcourt
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. For project wrap-ups and client and customer events, we’ll put together a menu of halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken for your staff.
Near Stanton Harcourt, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Stanton Harcourt questions
How far is Stanton Harcourt from London?
About 59 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Stanton Harcourt too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

How it works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Lunchtime bookings in Stanton Harcourt are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:30pm.

About the food
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you want china
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we are on site

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
